Restaurant Duct Cleaning

 

Restaurants need to maintain a certain level of cleanliness just to stay in business. However, there's one part of the restaurant that very often gets overlooked and it can be one of the most important parts. In restaurant kitchens, whenever food is cooked, it is done underneath an air exhaust duct. In most cases, owners are totally unaware of the importance of duct cleaning of these exhaust ducts.

Duct cleaning is very important for many reasons. One of the most important reasons is the prevention of fire. Many contaminants find their way into the exhaust ducts, including oil, grease, and dust. As we all know, ALL of these materials are flammable, and a small spark, flame, or even heat buildup could be enough to start a catastrophic fire.

Another reason for the necessity of duct cleaning is the food itself. The temperatures of the cooking surfaces could become irregular, and cause some foods not to cook completely. Heat could also build up in the kitchen, bringing chilled food ingredients up to dangerous temperatures where they could be susceptible to mold, fungus, and bacteria.

The best way to handle this problem is to invest in an industrial duct cleaner. These will power wash the ducts, removing all of the contaminates that can lead to clogged exhaust ducts. This should be part of your regular cleaning schedule, so that it is no longer overlooked. Generally, duct cleaning every three months is often enough, but it should be done monthly in restaurants that cook high volumes of food, such as fast food restaurants.

Keeping your exhaust ducts clean is so important to any restaurant, for a myriad of safety reasons. Once you purchase a duct cleaner, use it on a regular basis and you will find that you keep both customers and employees safe and happy.
